PRODUCT INFO:
Athena Sun Domes are a solar heating system that will heat your pool and save you a small fortune in heating costs. These heaters can be installed on above ground and inground pools as a single heating source or to supplement a current heating system. The Athena Solar Heating Pods are especially effective on above ground pools such as our wooden and doughboy pools and summer pools such as Intex and Bestway. Each Dome will heat up to 7,500lt of water. If you require more than two it is more effective to install in lines of two. For more information call us on 01322554870
Just use the sizing chart below to chose the right number of domes for your pool, if you opt for more than the required amount you will see a significant difference in pool temperature. Each Athena Dome will heat up to 7,500lt, this compared to just 4,500lts with the solar pods.
Heating calculations are based on continuous sun exposure for 10 hours, which should increase the water temperature, by the following:
One heater for 2,000lt +4c, 4,000lt +2.4c, 7,500lt +1.3c
Two heaters for 2,000lt +6c, 4,000lt +3.6c, 7,500lt +2.5c, 10,000lt +1.8c
Three heaters for 4,000lt +5.4c, 7,500lt +3.6c, 10,000lt +2.7c, 15,000lt +1.7c
Four heaters for 7,500lt +4.4c, 10,000lt +4.1c, 15,000lt +2.3c
The more domes you add the more heat you will produce, adding one or two more can make a significant difference to your water tempreture.
Athena Solar Sun Dome Heaters are an extremely effective way of heating your water for free using only the solar gain available from the Sun's strong rays. As gas and electric costs continue to soar using solar heating to heat your swimming pool has become almost essential, even if it is as an additional heat source to your main heating. During the peak summer season, having solar heaters adding free heat to your water could mean not having to use your electric or gas heater for up to a month. Those savings alone make installing solar heaters a must.
